Group BULK Submission usage guide.

In and effort to contribute to the community not just consume, I hoped to work with Group Bulk Submission organizers and help ease keeping track of all those submissions. This post originally used for testing hopefully now will serve as a guide in it's use.

So far this has been use with:
* Mike's (aka thenavarro) PSA/DNA submission in October 2009
* Bill's (aka lsutigers1973) Bulk Submission in January 2010.
* Mike's (aka thenavarro) PSA/DNA Round II submission in June 2010

Please note this was done during my lunches and a bit at night. Done completely from scratch and as such is NOT bullet proof. For the most part in working with submission organizers most issues have been resolved but I'm sure someone will find more and when / if you do please let me know! (and pre-thank you!)

Overall the idea is: I work with an organizer to setup registration. The organizer (or myself) adds participants and provides login information to those participating. Once logged in a participant can edit address and login information as well as provide all the information that PSA requires for grading his/her submissions. Once completed entering ones submissions the user will be able to Export to Excel (their list of submissions) and submit the listing to the submissions organizer via email. Once submitted the ability to add new entries will be locked preventing confusion. Entries entered by participants will be saved in a database so the organizer can export all submissions by participants to excel to consume with the labeling method of their choice. Also once submitted the organizer, participant and myself will be emailed the information as a safe-gaurd (I like safeguards).

Please note this is intended to aid in keeping track of submissions for those organizing bulk subs. Nothing fancy. If you find a problem or bug or feature you think would be nice please PM me.

Bulk submission organizer handles all the money, cards and rules for their submission. This utility is just for logging your cards.

Regardless once the organizer has contacted me and we've setup their submission users start by registering.
